Today marks my 5 year anniversary of opening up shop online and starting my small side business!

Except my shops are currently on vacation modes. Whoops.

Anyway, it’s always fun taking look at my donuts over the years — both sketches and plushes. Looking back, I almost forgot that I didn’t even start with donuts.

I started with these illustrations that I had put around the house when I had about 5 or 6 roommates. One of which was a huge offender of leaving presents in the toilet. Gross.

Then I moved onto my ABC obsession.

I mean, I’d always loved ABC-related things before I started making pillows, but whatever.

Thinking about it, 5 years sounds like a long time. It’s kinda crazy. It’s also crazy looking at how all my products and designs have changed over the years. In a good way, of course.

Anyway, Happy Wednesday everyone!
